Deerspring



About Me

I am a first-year Biostatistics PhD student at the JHU-BSPH. I am passionate about data science and statistical methodology. My primary technical interests are in autoencoders and causal inference, while my domain-specific research interests lie broadly in the fields of environmental health, climate policy, and protein design. I did my undergraduate (BSc) in Biochemistry at the University of Arizona, and spent 3-years as a research assistant focused on computational protein design and on synthetic biology. I have a little bit of experience in statistics/programming/data analysis, but no formal academic training. What I hope most to get out of this course is a more fundamental grasp of the RLang and the data science ecosystem built around it.
